In my adolescence, I sought to recreate the fashion images I saw on magazine covers. The polished aesthetics and intention of perfection dominated my creative endeavours. However, under pressure from a more socially conscious audience, many of the notable tropes of fashion photography have experienced profound decay. Today the fashion world is moving towards adopting virtual technology, and visually driven work is once again taking precedence. As I seek to define my work and shift with the industry, I find comfort in 3D image-making for my teenage dreams. In returning to an adolescent frame of mind, I have resurrected rebellious intentions and a wildly uninhibited imagination. This became personified through sculpting virtual avatars using a collision of various modelling software. Their appearance and material physicality is intended to seduce and tantalise. The work seeks to find new territories in the space where fashion, photography and technological discourse meet.
